Dunedin weird crime files
Reports of 'strange activity' prompted a call-out in Dunedin, police say.
Concerned members of the public contacted police after seeing a man being "bundled into a car", Senior Sergeant Craig Dinnissen said.
The incident unfolded in the Canongate area over the weekend, but officers could not get to the bottom of the 'strange activity'.
"No-one is talking to us."
While some said it wasn't as bad as it looked, they declined to comment on the nature of the incident, Dinnissen said.
It was possible the incident was a prank, he said.
Meanwhile a 15-year-old boy was locked up for three burglaries over the weekend.
The teen allegedly burgled a North Rd property, and was later spotted at an address on Gt King St before jumping over a fence.
A police dog located the youth, who "due to his aggressiveness received a dog-bite".
He received medical attention, and was taken into custody.
We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!
